The "Total New Cities to Emerge" Bug

[Karons]

Game Version: 12.0.77

Game Options:

Total New Cities to Emerge: 13
Years Between New City Emergence: 5 (No Random)
Emerge Starting from This Year: 1990

During gameplay, the "Total New Cities to Emerge" feature does not function as intended.

I expected the first new city to emerge in 1995, but no new city appeared that year. Even after loading a save from 1994 and playing through again, the first city still failed to emerge.

I then reverted to a save from 1990. This time, new cities emerged as expected in 1995 and 2000. However, no new city appeared in 2005.

This issue is not limited to a single save file. It occurs across multiple save files, and I have been unable to identify the cause or find a way to resolve it.

If my save files would be helpful for investigating this issue, please let me know how I can upload them. I really enjoy this game, and I would be happy to cooperate in any way I can to help resolve this problem.

I am Korean, so this report was written using a translation tool. I apologize if any of the wording is awkward or inaccurate.

With how many already built cities do you start your new game? I dont think new cities will emerge if you start out with already having the max capacity of cities available that the game allows.

I forgot to mention that I set the number of Starting Cities to 2.
